Monday, 22nd October, 2007

There are few places in the US that speak to the soul of the country like the Statue of Liberty. It must be one of the most recognizable statues in the world and American citizens are proud of what the statue stands for.

Located on a 12 acre island, the Statue of Liberty Enlightening the World was a gift of friendship from the people of France to the people of the United States and is a universal symbol of freedom and democracy. The Statue of Liberty was dedicated on October 28, 1886, designated as a National Monument in 1924 and restored for her centennial on July 4, 1986.
